The art of showing up : how to be there for yourself and your people / Rachel Wilkerson Miller.

Summary:

"How to form and maintain genuine friendships in an age of social disconnect"-- Provided by publisher.

We live in an age where you probably have more 'friends' online than in real life. Miller charts a course to kinder, more thoughtful, and more fulfilling relationships. She reminds us that 'you can't show up for others if you aren't showing up for yourself first.' Readers will learn to define their own needs, reclaim their time, and learn to ask for backup. Miller also shows the importance of recognizing-- and gently ending-- toxic friendships -- adapted from back cover.
